About the roommates:
Currently there are two female roommates seeking a third roommate for September 1.
S works in Kendall Sq a couple times a week. I mainly wfh on Mondays and Fridays. I'm pretty chill and love to try new spots in the city in my spare time. Looking for someone in their 20s or 30s who's a grad student or a working professional. It's important for the person to be clean and tidy.
F: I'm a law student, so my weeks are usually pretty busy, but I love making the most of my free time. I'm always excited to try new coffee shops and restaurants, explore the city, go on walks, or have a cozy night in. I also really value having a clean and comfortable space, and I'd love to live with someone who feels the same.
I'd be happy to be friends with my roommate and explore the city together, but I also respect having our own routines and space. I'm big on open communication, kindness, and being considerate of each other.
Water and Sewer included.
